Well, more like a clear wind, but it's a cold one!  Now that finals are all said and done and we're all cozying around the fire to escape the unbearable 40F windchill of the Texas winter, may as well get back to finishing Ch. 4.  I am on Ch.4 right?  Think so, no-one's saying I'm not!  I'll update this entry every few days with wordcounts to keep me going, hope to get this done ASAP.  Really excited too, the story's starting to open up, and I've changed so much for the better from my old draft.

Also, quick question.  Ch.4 will introduce another female character, one I liked coming up with.  That'll bring the core cast up to 3.  Now, the original draft actually calls for 5 girls total by the end, but there's still time to change that.  Would you, as readers, feel overwhelmed by that?  Think I might pull a Chrono Cross and lose focus from having too many people?  Never written a story before, so I might, and never realize it until it's too late!

Ah well, without further ado- [link]

(What luck that that line was at the end!)

Edit:  Pfft, Chrono Cross?  That assumes I actually make it a good story by the end

1/16/12= Holidays are ova', back to work!
1/17/12=  6489.  Woo, got stuff done today.  About 1/3 finished with the writing.  Nearly missed a minor plot hole.
1/23/12=  Laptop is fried and I have to use one provided by the center.  Since I don't have a means of salvaging the disk right now, it's time to start over! keep going and pray the parts fit together!
1/24/12= Super secret box art project to take my mind off of possibly losing the chapter.  Been a while since I've made one of these, I'm liking it so far!  Paint.NET forces you to be crafty.
1/27/12= Box complete!  That took waaaaay too long.
1/28/12= Back on schedule, need to start on the 2nd half.  Typing the first substantial WG stuff, it's hard to be concise!
